The Sanctuary Course for Catholics is a Mental Health Awareness and Education Course. The
course will take place over an 8-week period, each Monday, from September 18 through October 30th, 2023.  Each session includes a 30 min video and discussion after for approximately 1 hour.
Course Description: One in four people will be affected by a mental health problem at some point in their lives, yet the stigma surrounding mental health silences many and prevents faith
communities from responding compassionately and effectively.
This eight-session course—designed for use in small groups—explores the realities of mental health and illness, as well as the vital need for faith-based community conversations about these
topics. The sessions are accompanied by compelling films that feature the stories of Catholics living with mental health challenges, along with the insights of archbishops, theologians, and psychologists.
We hope to see you there. Please contact Deacon Joe Zagar for any questions. The course is free.
